This is the post that almost didn't happen!

Last week, painters came in and painted our downstairs family room, foyer, upstairs halls and 2 staircases. I didn't pay them to paint the beadboard and mantel area to save a little money. It ended up being a lot of work. It was previously painted in an oil satin. I had to prime it before painting. It was higher than I realized so my hubby went and bought us an 8 foot ladder. I wasn't too crazy about that height on a ladder, but I am proud to say that I put the last coat of paint on the actual mantel on Monday. 

So I literally completed this project yesterday. Nothing like coming through at the last-minute. 

I needed something simple for this month's Thrift Store Decor makeover Challenge!

I searched my stash and pulled out these 2 cuties!

How lucky was I to find a pair! They are petite in size, but already a nice white for spring. 

When I took off for Hobby Lobby over the weekend, I had no real clue what I was going to do with these. That happens a lot to me. I know what I have in mind, but no true plan. I knew they were well suited for a spring look. When I came across the sweet set of 2 bunny picks, I knew what I had to do!

I didn't even need to paint them. You never know what I might do with them in the future.

I took my urns with me to the craft store. This enabled me to select the right sized supplies. The foam was the perfect width. I simply cut one cylinder of the floral foam in half and wedged it into the urn.

I tried the pick in first for size. One I had to trim just a bit.

I removed the pick and cut moss to arrange around the top.

This grapevine wreath is the perfect small size for a napkin ring.

Add back in the bunny pick.

At first, I tried just inserting small sprigs cut from the faux flowers. I didn't like the look so I cut off individual roses.

I put a bit of hot glue around the edge of the bud and inserted it into the foam.

I added one single bud all the way around the top of the grapevine wreath.

I love how they turned out. I wish Ashlyn was here….she'd have oooo'd and awed. Hubby wasn't quite as enthused about it.

We sold our dining room suite last Friday. Part of the suite was on this wall. We purchased this antique secretary over the weekend. It was a great price and love the new look here. It's not perfect by any means and some may have passed it by, but I loved it and wanted something at a great price. Since I will no longer have a china cabinet, this is perfect to house a few of those treasured trinkets that I'd like on display. The little topiaries are sweet here. Do you notice the wall color change. It went from green to Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams. It is growing on me.

    Your topiaries are so doggoned adorable. Am not much for topiaries but these sure have changed my mind. Am so inspired will be on look out for containers can make them in. This idea could be used for any holiday or season, so smart of you. The bunny picks with roses underneath gives them perfect finishing touch.
    Happy Easter and Spring

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner!

Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏

Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mar Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mark Twain 

I’ve been on a no sugar or anything processed lifestyle change going on 7 weeks except for that weekend cheat meal. Spent an afternoon doing a little shopping and indulging in a vanilla chai latte with my daughter, and it made my day! No regrets on the sweet splurge. #ad

This outfit with pieces from @lovechicos has been on repeat the last couple of weeks! I don’t tend to wear bright colors like this in the winter but let me tell you…. this sweater changed my mind! I am sharing 4 fun looks on the blog today with some of my favorite @lovechicos pieces. #lovechicos

These So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are the only ones I reach for these days. They work with boots, heels, flats and sneakers.
